We obtain a representation formula for the derivative of the spectral shift function $\xi(\lambda; B, \epsilon)$ related to the operators $H_0(B,\epsilon) = (D_x - By)^2 + D_y^2 + \epsilon x$ and $H(B, \epsilon) = H_0(B, \epsilon) + V(x,y),…

We prove non-perturbative Anderson localization and almost localization for a family of quasi-periodic operators on the strip. As an application we establish Avila's almost reducibility conjecture for Schr\"odinger operators with…

We derive two main results: First, assume that $A$, $B$, $A_n$, $B_n$ are self-adjoint operators in the Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, and suppose that $A_n$ converges to $A$ and $B_n$ to $B$ in strong resolvent sense as $n \to \infty$. Fix…

We study the metal-insulator transition and magnetic ordering in the Hubbard model using the particle-hole mapping. The analysis simplifies near the ferromagnetic limit. We find that the two dimensional(2D) Hubbard model has a charge…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V({\mathbf x})$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\geq2$, with quasi-periodic potentials $V({\mathbf x})$. We prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum of a generic $H$ contains a semi-axis…

It is shown that for any irrational rotation number and any admissible gap labelling number the almost Mathieu operator (also known as Harper's operator) has a gap in its spectrum with that labelling number. This answers the strong version…

We establish Anderson localization for quasiperiodic operator families of the form $$ (H(x)\psi)(m)=\psi(m+1)+\psi(m-1)+\lambda v(x+m\alpha)\psi(m) $$ for all $\lambda>0$ and all Diophantine $\alpha$, provided that $v$ is a $1$-periodic…

For a class of discrete quasi-periodic Schroedinger operators defined by covariant re- presentations of the rotation algebra, a lower bound on phase-averaged transport in terms of the multifractal dimensions of the density of states is…

The nonlinear $\sigma$-model for disordered interacting electrons is studied in spatial dimensions $d>4$. The critical behavior at the metal-insulator transition is determined exactly, and found to be that of a standard…

The electronic structure of VO$_2$ is studied in the frameworks of local density approximation (LDA) and LDA+$U$ to give a quantitative description of the metal-insulator (MI) transition in this system. It is found that, both structural…

In this article, we show that if $A$ is a maximal monotone operator on a Hilbert space $H$ with $0$ in the range $\textrm{Rg}(A)$ of $A$, then for every $0<s<1$, the Dirichlet problem associated with the Bessel-type equation $$…

We consider a general elliptic operator in an infinite multi-dimensional cylinder with several distant perturbations; this operator is obtained by ``gluing'' several single perturbation operators $\mathcal{H}^{(k)}$, $k=1,\ldots,n$, at…

We present a model for the metal-insulator transition in 2D, observed in the recent years. Our starting point consists of two ingredients only, which are ubiquitous in the experiments: Coulomb interactions and weak disorder spin-orbit…

We prove that Schr\"odinger operators with meromorphic potentials $(H_{\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+ \frac{g(\theta+n\alpha)}{f(\theta+n\alpha)} u_n$ have purely singular continuous spectrum on the set $\{E:…

We investigate the doping-driven metal-insulator transition of the (2+1)-dimensional Hubbard model in the path-integral formalism with the tensor renormalization group method. We calculate the electron density $\langle n\rangle$ as a…

For the almost Mathieu operator with a small coupling constant, for a series of spectral gaps, we describe the asymptotic locations of the gaps and get lower bounds for their lengths. The results are obtained by analysing a monodromy…

The self-energy-functional approach proposed recently is applied to the single-band Hubbard model at half-filling to study the Mott-Hubbard metal-insulator transition within the most simple but non-trivial approximation. This leads to a…
